מַרְגֵּמָה f. a heap of stones, from the root רָגַם; Arab. رجم to heap up stones. Proverbs 26:8, כִּצְרֹר אֶבֶן בְּמַרְגֵּמָה “as a bag of gems in a heap of stones;” a proverbial expression, similar to Matthew 7:6. Not amiss Luther, als ob man Gdelfteine auf den Rabenftein würfe.-LXX. translate מ׳ a sling (from the root רָגַם to cast stones): ὃς ἀποδεσμεύει λίθον ἐν σφενδόνῃ.
